| Recommendations for Electronic Crossovers - HELP I second the recommendation for the Bryston. I am using it in my system that is biamped with ribbons and Infinity Watson dual voice-coil woofers. | |
| Which turntables? By all means keep the yamaha PX-3, or sell it to me. They are awesome. Linear tracking, heavy platter, automatic, and it does an excellent job playing records. It is one of my favorites. If you want to sell it, please let me know. | |
| koetsu rosewood signature vs. Blue urushi Hard to believe but I can't decide which I like better. There is no cartridge I have heard that compares with the midrange of the Koetsu. The Shilabe comes close but excels in the low and high frequency range. So, I have both currently mounted on ... | |
| koetsu rosewood signature vs. Blue urushi Yes, if you are buying it new. You will be pleased with it. But that is just for the Koetsu. There are a lot of other cartridges out there that are great and sell for less. For me, it is an adventure. I have lots of different cartridges. My curren... | |
| koetsu rosewood signature vs. Blue urushi For me, it made a difference, but not a significant one. I believe the difference can be attributed to the platinum magnets. The midrange was a tad better defined, but it is hard to justify the difference in cost. I could only tell the difference ... | |
| koetsu rosewood signature vs. Blue urushi I have actually heard both side by side and to be honest, I couldn't hear the difference. I currently own the Rosewood Signature, and the Rosewood Signature Platinum. A close friend who lives nearby has the blue urishi. I just sold the vermillion ... | |
| VPI JMW 12.5 replace tonearm wires I have no affliliation with him, but do recommend http://www.britaudio.com/Tone_Arm_Rewires.html for rewiring tonearms. I have the know how and skill to do it myself, but he just did such a superb professional job with the 2 JMW 12.5 tonearms that... | |
| Looking for SUT for Air Tight PC-1 supreme For .4mV with 1 ohm, the maximum ratio is 1:25, if your phono overloads at 10mV. With MC cartridges, a basic starting point is to use an impedance of 10 times the internal impedance to be safe. Therefore the recommended loading will be anything ov... | |
| Looking for SUT for Air Tight PC-1 supreme Your Air Tight PC-1 has an output of .6mV with an internal impedance of 2.5 ohms, according the cartridge database. The problem is that it is a relatively high output voltage compared to the internal impedance. It depends on the overload voltage o... | |
| Shelter 901: Optimal Impedance The internal impedance of the Shelter 901 is 20 ohms and the rule of thumb I use is to start with 10 times the internal impedance, and adjust from there. I am using my 901 at about 180 ohms and am happy with it. The specs say 100 ohms but I found ... | |
| Azimuth and the Fozgometer Does anyone know if the fozgometer measures millivolts and compares them from side to side? If so, then couldn't one just use a millivolt meter or a oscilloscope to measure each side and adjust the azimuth until the voltages are the same? Or does ... |
